hello list!

i am a little bit confused with openssh. runnig SuSE 6.4 as a router in a small network i instaled openssh (openssh-2.9p1-17 from suse-server) to maintain the router. after setting hosts.deny to ALL: ALL

and hosts.allow to ssh: LOCAL 192.168.3. ...

i was unable to ssh to the router from my local net. but after i set hosts.deny to (ALL EXCEPT ssh): ALL connecting wasn't a problem. looks as if shhd is only checking hosts.deny.... any ideas? thanks!
